<span>C. C4H8 Given that the number of moles of CO2 and H2O produced from the combustion are equal, that means for every carbon atom, there are 2 hydrogen atoms because CO2 has only 1 carbon atom and H2O has 2 hydrogen atoms. So let's look at the available choices and see which one is correct. A. C2H2 This is a 1 to 1 ratio of carbon to hydrogen. Wrong answer. B. C2H6 This is a 1 to 3 ratio of carbon to hydrogen. Wrong answer. C. C4H8 This is a 1 to 2 ratio of carbon to hydrogen. Correct answer. D. C6H6 This is a 1 to 1 ratio of carbon to hydrogen. Wrong answer.</span>

The [H+] of a solution can be determined from the pH using the equation: [H+] = 10 - pH ... Where: [H+] = hydrogen ion concentra
padilas [110]

Answer:

pH = -log₁₀ [H⁺]

Explanation:

pH is a value in chemistry used in to measure solution trying to determine each quality, purity, risks for health of some products, etc.

As you write in the question, [H⁺] = 10^(-pH)

Using logarithm law (log (m^(p) = p log(m):

log₁₀ [H⁺] = -pH

And

<h3>pH = -log₁₀ [H⁺]</h3>
